try to make a new login! I had the same problem but i think its an master server/relay problem.

It did work for me quite fine but be carefull do not try to restart it every time then you might get this problem.

But im not quite sure for it.

[aloukat]

LOL i just made for all 4 Relays new Logins, and the same erros still remains....

[nocturne]

Sounds like a network accessibility problem.. what's your setup?

[aloukat]

I don't know where there should be an error, and the funny thing is, that the relays already has worked...once...

Try to register relays on the playerpage of maniaplanet and then try again.

my config looks like this and it works really good:

my startup .bash and .sh

Code: Select all

ManiaPlanetServer.exe /dedicated_cfg=relay_cfg.txt /join= /joinpassword= /game_settings=MatchSettings/CanyonA.txt

you must always set a spectator password to make it fully functional. Otherwise there might be a problem with the masterserver recognizing relays, but i believe relays do not fully work under tm2.

[Sythy]

Where do you register the relays? All I can see in the playerpage is to create a dedi server account... and I've made 3 of them for this.

[aloukat]

Yes, the same way i did it.

i don't know an other way.

i already talkted to the guys from Bullracing (TBR) and they got the same problem...
